Professional gambler Harry Findlay has attracted a lot of attention. He's managed to make a profit of £20,000 throughout his career, and admits that his turnover is "colossal."
His new book, Gambling For Life, is the extraordinary story of how he has made his living.
Harry insists he's not a gambling addict, instead describing himself as "a winner and a spender."
Very few people make a living out of gambling, so how has he been so successful?
His explanation is that that he has always been able to "price things up well", though he acknowledges that it also has a lot to do with luck: "I was in the right place at the right time."
Despite his lifelong dedication to gambling, however, Harry dislikes newer developments such as betting apps and fixed-odds terminals, which he believes are harmful and lead to more addictive behaviour.
"It's toxic. It's a very bad situation. I very rarely go into betting shops now, but when I do, all it is now is people playing those machines and nothing else."
